'Breakfast of Champions'...never read it before...it's good so far.

Good-bye Gary.

If I pay 5000gp for an inferior diamond will it still satisfy the requirement for the spell component?

Black Water Academy

I hope Philip Seymour Hoffman wins best supporting actor for "Charlie Wilson's War". I really liked him in that...and most of his other roles.

In a box...in my basement...in a closet we never use...stored in a box the says 'Useless Papers.' I've moved it probably 6 times in the last 15 years: same box same papers+extra. The last time we moved, my brother-in-law carried the--now quite heavy--box...stopped...and looked at me and said...

No dump stat. Kirk is a DM PC if I've ever seen one.

Palleomortis, I'm not sure why the alternatives you listed make the points any less valid. I would consider computer gaming just as dire...if not more. And, if you were simply trying to list things that are worse...I'm not sure that is helpful--'cause we could just mention heroine or curb...

I know the situations that I have been involved with over the years, concerning the evils of D&D, have revolved around much more mundane topics. The biggest worry from friend and family tended to be, similar to what Celebrim mentioned, simply the act of role-playing: The depth of character...

Factols Manifesto I love this book.

Thanks, Paul, I really appreciate that. I wanted to join the discussion but felt I should probably make the effort to read the current work first...before I stick my foot in my mouth. Although…I have read other books from two of those authors and I'm feeling a little skeptical. It is great...

Paul. Could you perhaps list particular books or authors that you feel illustrate examples of excellent contemporary 'tie-in' fiction...besides yourself and your work of course. On a side note: I tend to be an idea driven writer (in that I work from the abstract to the tangible--looking for...

You know, I had kind of a strange experience with that test. I started it as a lark--but with a bit of a smug self assurance that I would do very well considering the amout of time I've spent on various geeky hobbies. After viewing the test, and quite honestly not knowing the majority of the...

Just before I fall asleep. I find my mind just manages to lose the crutch of reality and think in blissfull freeform. I keep a notepad with a pen tied to it on my nightstand. I used to keep a tape recorder by my bed but I found I didn't use it as often and found it hard to search for...
